It shouldn’t really come as a surprise considering the fact that we’ve known for some time that Samsung is hard at work on multiple Android devices, but the NYT is reporting that Samsung will have multiple touch-screen Android devices in the market next year for under $100.
Casey Ryan, the product manager for the Reclaim at Samsung, said that by next year, touch-screen phones, with full Web browsers running the Android operating system will be available for well under $100.

Full Broadband Speeds, HTML Web Experience with Touch Screen and Mobile WiMAX/WiFi Access Powered by Samsung Mondi™
Gotta say…this thing looks pretty sweet! (Enough to move to Las Vegas? hmmm… Sin City + Samsung Mondi = sweeeet broadband cabaret? heh. sold.)
Well anyway… here’s the gist of the Press Release:
(BUSINESS WIRE) – SAMSUNG MOBILE “Samsung Mondi” PRESS RELEASE
Samsung Telecommunications America (Samsung Mobile) today announced the commercial availability of the Samsung Mondi™, the most advanced Mobile WiMAX-enabled handheld device in the U.S. The touch screen Mondi, which is Latin for “world,” is designed for use with the Clear™ Mobile WiMAX service from Clearwire in the activated markets of Atlanta, Las Vegas, Portland, OR and future WiMAX markets.
The Samsung Mondi can harness upload and download speeds that double comparable devices running on 3G networks while taking advantage of the widespread connectivity of Mobile WiMAX. The Mondi is also equipped with WiFi, allowing users to keep strong wireless connections while working outside designated Mobile WiMAX markets.
Available in a solid black finish, this device slides open horizontally to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard. The Mondi is packed with multimedia features that offer instant access to E-mail, Internet, video content and business applications. The device also supports various services including Fring™, Gypsii™, and Windows Live Messenger. The Mondi is equipped for GPS Navigation through Route 66, providing turn-by-turn directions.
The Mondi’s compact design provides the user with a more mobile form factor and ease-of-use than the typical laptop or netbook. While it is small enough to fit into the user’s hand or pocket, the Mondi packs an impressive Web browser, powered by Opera 9.5, which takes full advantage of the device’s 4.3-inch touch screen.

“The Mondi is a perfect example of the powerful and stylish innovation that Samsung is bringing to the U.S. mobile market,” said Omar Khan, Senior Vice President of Strategy and Product Management for Samsung Mobile. “The Mondi packs productivity tools, entertainment options and content management applications into a compact device that is flexible and intuitive.”
The Mondi is completely customizable, thanks to a set of widgets that can be dragged and dropped anywhere on the display screen for easy viewing and use. The Mondi is also an excellent device for work or for play. WiFi connectivity offers the business user fast and simple connections to Microsoft Office Outlook Mobile and many other vertical business applications outside the Clear service area.
SPECS:
(Samsung Jet Mobile Phone)
Looks like Samsung is out with another awesome video… this time for the Samsung Jet S8000 mobile phone. We also posted a Samsung Jet Review recently and gave the mobile phone 4 stars out of 5.
The video is footage of an incredible live ‘flash’ publicity stunt event for Samsung Jet phone. The event happened on June 22nd, 11:47am in heart of London, Piccadilly Circus, with 32 hidden cameras, a flying ship and… two freaked out bungee jumping elephants. Superfast stunt… superfast phone FTW! RAWR!
here’s the official Samsung Jet website (finally +_+)
For comparison, check out the how the original Samsung Jet commericial looks as its advertised in Korea (in Korean).
NOTE: “Samsung Jet” is the rebranded name of the Korean mobile phone called the Samsung Haptic AMOLED (햅틱아몰레드).

Trippy, huh? Totally all slick. I’m loving the elephants but don’t exactly mind an ad with famous hot Korean actress as a sponsor either. Maybe they should have made HER bungee outta the spaceship? LOL

Samsung recently launched the Samsung Jet mobile phone and we were finally able to get our hands on it. It’s called Jet because of its speed and Samsung is promoting it with the slogan “Impatience is a virtue.” According to Samsung, it is “the must-have product for those who live fast paced lives and want to pack more of everything into their day.
To live up to its claim, the phone features an 800MHz CPU which is theoretically faster than the processor used in the iPhone 3GS. From our experience, applications launch quickly. It also features 2GB of storage that can be expanded to 16GB. The handset also features HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth 2.1.
The phone has everything you need on the inside but the first thing you’ll notice is its screen. The phone features a beautiful 3.1 inch WVGA AMOLED screen. The screen has a resolution of 800×480 and displays 16 million colors. It’s the best screen I’ve seen on a mobile phone.
What also stands out is how small the phone is. The phone measures in at 108.8 x 53.5 x 11.9 mm but it’s difficult to explain how small it feels until holding it for yourself. It fits well in the pocket and is a pleasure to carry around.
The Jet S8000 runs Samsung’s OS called Samsung Handset Platform or SHP. It’s one of the first Samsung phones to use the Cubic-style menu. Spinning the cube is fun but also a bit cumbersome on a practical basis. We also found the touchscreen was a bit resistive and worked better with the stylus than our fingers.
Samsung plans to release a SDK for developers to build applications in the future but for now, they have around 30 widgets available. The phone features Microsoft Exchange support through ActiveSync. You can browse the Web with their Dolphin browser that is based on Webkit 3.0.
There is also a 5.0 MegaPixel camera included. The picture quality on the Samsung Jet was excellent for a phone in its class and there’s a dual LED flash to help in dark environments. The camera also features autofocus, smile detection and digital zoom. The camera can also record video.
Samsung has been releasing an impressive array of mobile phones recently. The AMOLED screen, fast processor and size make the Samsung Jet one of the best phones in its class but we were left disappointed with the user interface. Overall, we give the Samsung Jet S8000 4 stars out of 5.
